"...what thwarts us and demands of us the greatest effort is also what can teach us most."
Matthew Arnold
"Give yourself something to work toward--constantly."
Mary Kay Ash
"There is no such thing as can't, only won't. If you're qualified, all it takes is a burning desire to accomplish, to make a change. Go forward, go backward. Whatever it takes! But you can't blame other people or society in general. It all comes from your mind. When we do the impossible we realize we are special people."
Jan Ashford
"Dalton's records, carefully preserved for a century, were destroyed during the World War II bombing of Manchester. It is not only the living who are killed in war."
Isaac Asimov
"Faith is to believe what you do not see; the reward of this faith is to see what you believe."
Saint Augustine
"The good Christian should beware the mathematician and all those who make empty prophecies. The danger already exists that the mathematicians have made a covenant with the devil to darken the spirit and to confine man in the bonds of hell."
Saint Augustine
"A good man does not spy around for the black spots in others, but presses unswervingly on towards his mark."
Marcus Aelius Aurelius
"Oh, how I love the Earth and everything in it, life and death. And men. One can think of nothing finer, or nicer, than men … their wars, their concentration camps, their justice."
Marcel Ayme
"Even at our birth, death does but stand aside a little. And every day he looks towards us and muses somewhat to himself whether that day or the next he will draw nigh."
Sir Francis Bacon
"Atheism leaves a man to sense, to philosophy, to natural piety, to laws, to reputation, all which may be guides to an outward moral virtue, though religion were not; but superstition dismounts all these, and erects an absolute monarchy in the minds of men...the master of superstition is the people; and arguments are fitted to practice, in a reverse order."
Sir Francis Bacon
"The whole history of civilization is strewn with creeds and institutions which were invaluable at first, and deadly afterwards."
Walter Bagehot
"To look backward for a while is to refresh the eye, to restore it, and to render it more fit for its prime function of looking forward."
Margaret Fairless Barber
"You must have been warned against letting the golden hours slip by. Yes, but some of them are golden only because we let them slip by."
Sir James Matthew Barrie
"What I look forward to is continued immaturity followed by death."
Dave Barry
"Making a success of the job at hand is the best step toward the kind you want."
Bernard Mannes Baruch
"So, rather than appear foolish afterward, I renounce seeming clever now."
William of Baskerville
"I tore myself away from the safe comfort of certainties through my love for truth - and truth rewarded me."
Simone de Beauvoir
"A liberal is a man or a woman or a child who looks forward to a better day, a more tranquil night, and a bright, infinite future."
Leonard Bernstein
"It ain't the heat, it's the humility."
Lawrence Peter Berra
"There is no vice so simple but assumes some mark of virtue on his outward parts."
Mary Bertone
